I have recently taken apart some old PCs and found an HDD that uses this cable, but my motherboard doesn’t seem to have a connector. Is there a way to connect this to SATA or PCIE?
edit: hdd, not ssd

Laptops for a while had these on the 2.5 inchers, and then I remember a very small window of time having IDE 2.5 inch ssds, but it was a very narrow window
What laptops do you remember with a 2.5" IDE ssd? Microdrive hard drives were more popular in laptops than their CF counterparts just because SSDs were so slow and low capacity. SSDs didn’t take off until right before NVME era.
Disk on modules existed, but those were for industrial PCs and nothing a normal person would ever actually use.
There’s no way I could remember a model number or brand. I worked Geek Squad back then and replaced probably thousands of laptop hard drives. Number one point of failure
